Slumber, my catkins, my get, my make - Holding you close, I'll be here when you wake - Softly sleep, softly dream, mother is nigh - Sleep tightly and dream to my purr lullaby. - Paul Gallico.

It's cats. Eating people.

What's not to love?

I see it as a musical.

kafkaesque, are you following me?

Anyway, don't get me wrong -- I love two-headed people-eating cats as much as the next guy, but I just don't see how we're going to fit Ralph Nader, Noam Chomsky, or George Bush into this discussion. Wait, I guess I just did.

My previous statement meant that I tried to think of some flippant attempt at a one-liner in order to scoff the FPP, but it was so bad I couldn't come up with anything. It's so bad it doesn't deserve flippant one-liners, gay dog musicals notwithstanding.

I hate it when I have to explain my flippant comments.

Oh! I see now! I shoulda used the word zingers. Maybe people woulda understood me then.

Uhm... Okay. I got no zingers for this one.

liam; nobody wants to see a musical about cats... what's next, a musical about the king of Siam?

No, no, ZachsMind ... your initial response was entirely appropriate.
